Solutions for Controlling Pollen

Regardless of whether it’s tree, grass, or weed pollen, there are some common denominators for minimizing the effect that pollen has on you in your indoor space.

Know when the pollen that triggers your symptoms is most prevalent and avoid the outdoors during those hours.

If there is no way around being out in it, make sure that you remove your clothes and shoes, and shower before going about your daily routine at home.

Minimize the exchange of indoor air with outdoor air. Keep windows and doors closed as much as possible in both your home and your car.

Use air conditioning rather than fans. Fans will send any pollen that has settled out of the air airborne again making it available for you to inhale.

Even with these precautions it is almost impossible to keep all pollen outdoors. The best way to effectively eliminate the pollen that gets in on pets, packages, and through doors as you come and go is to filter the air.

An effective purifier for pollen should contain a series of filters designed to filter the biggest down to the smallest pollen and particulates from the air. A HEPA or high efficiency particle arresting filter is a must to insure effectiveness.

By definition this type of filter must be able to remove 99.97% of all particles down to .3 microns in size. Particles that small are invisible to the eye, but if you’re allergic you know that you don’t have to see them to know they’re there.

The good news is that this type of filtration will also take out other pollutants that are common allergens in addition to the pollen. These particles include household dust, dust mites, mold and mildew spores, pet dander, bacteria and viruses.
